Be it known that Ll'ViLLiAu a citizen of the United States, residing in the city of Cleveland, countyo Cu State of Ohio, have invented provenicnts in Gas-Producers, of which the following is a specification. p

The Improvements of niy inve signed to provide ,simple and means for effecting a more efficient distribuand guarding the tion of the blast sage against the deposition of the producer body.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is aken through i embodying a a horizontal sectional view, t the body of a gas producer, form of the improvements; Fig. cal sectional view thereof, takei a-b of Fig. 1,' Fig. 3 is a horiz View taken through the body of ducer, embodying a second fori proveinents, and Fig. -1 is a vertical sectional of Fig. 3.

A spreader and guard 26, of width less than that of' the device 2i), extends longitudinally thereof and is supported thereon by the feet 27, bolts 28 fixing the pai-ts 20 and 26 together. The device 26 has laterally disposed wings extendtlie length of the device 2O and v.- downal a nglc or ridge formthe passages 29 coinpening 25. n each form of the improvided a simple strucguardsV the blast passage the contents of the body hic-li is easily divide` ged thereby throughouttie body.

Having des `ibed niy i nvcntion, I claim: i

1. In a gas-producer, a blast conduit, a. spreading device having a downwardly extending iiiterior`pa-rt and a laterally extending uart disposed so :is to divide and direct the blast issuing freni said conduit, and a second spreading device disposcd so as ,to further direct said blast.

2. .in a gas producer, i spreader and guard having ai downwardly extending month, and a'second s reader and guard dispeised above said inout i.

3. In :i gf'producer, a spreader and guard having s. dim'nwardly extend in g inouth with a part or* parts extending laterally therefrom, and a second spreader and guard having "a ving with the decc 2O niiinieating with the o "\"-lt`\iviil be seen that i po'vei'i'ients there -is that hot-ir against nl@ iii..
